No announcement yet.
If Lomachenko retired tomorrow, would he be HOF-worthy?

Originally posted by Pigeons View PostI think so. He's reached P4P #1 by a couple of sources (BWAA, ESPN). He holds 3 world records (fastest to a title in 1, 2, and 3 weight classes). He's got good names on his resume (GRJ, Walters, Rigondeaux, Linares). All in 12 pro fights.
Moot point though. He's just getting started.

Some fighters have asteriks to their names, but overall it's a good top 5. Not yet great, but looking at recent inductees, the requirements to get inducted are apparently not that high.
What are Vitali Klitschko, Naseem Hamed, Joe Calzaghe or Arturo Gattis top 5 wins?
If it was up to me, none of the boxers that you listed would be inducted into the HOF.
It is disappointing that the standards just keep dropping.

but answering the TS question, with the current requirements to get into the HOF he probably already has done enough.
